My desktop

Haven't posted anything in a while; been too busy to do much.  I did put some finishing touches to my desktop, changing out the few shortcut icons on my taskbar.  As you can see, I like a clean, flat UI.  I wouldn't call it minimalist, as I like bigger elements and fonts (eyes going bad, what can I say) and bold colors.

This is a heavily modified VS.  Sorry, I've had to make alterations that are specific to my PC and its set-up, plus I've never packaged a visual theme before and probably don't have the time to do one for for the public.  Sorry.
Start Orb:  I made the orb, and used the Windows 7 Start Orb Changer.  The Start Orb is specific to my taskbar color and "mouse hover" actions, so they match the VS.  Probably wouldn't work for too many others.

The shortcuts on the Taskbar are Windows Explorer, Chrome Apps, Illustrator, EM Client (Outlook alternative), Firefox.  I made the icons, and used Resource Hacker to change the app files
Wallpaper is also mine.
